Comment(by drcouzelis):

 I just noticed these files: (in add-ons/kernel/drivers/graphics/radeon)

 In "CP_setup.c":


 {{{
   case rt_r300:
   case rt_rv350:
   case rt_r350:
   case rt_rv380:
   case rt_r420:
       microcode = r300_cp_microcode;
 }}}

 The microcode for "r420" is different from the "r300" microcode. I
 confirmed this by doing a diff of the latest Haiku r300 microcode (found
 in "CPMicroCode.h") and the r420 microcode from the Linux kernel.

 Maybe making the update to support the r420 microcode will be a lot easier
 than I thought. ;-)

 By the way, I'm still under the ASSUMPTION that Haiku is actually trying
 to load the "radeon" driver for my video card. I have not confirmed
 whether it is using "radeon" or "vesa". I'm still pretty much a Haiku
 newbie.
